Balbo

Perhaps Gerrit Cole wouldn’t have slept on covering first base in that same fateful fifth inning if he’d been able to mull his options by scratching an Italo Balbo beard.

Horner has tended from time to time in recent years to downplay Newey's influence, and talk up that of technical director Pierre Wache and aerodynamics chief Enrico Balbo.

Horner has spent time extolling the virtues of head of aerodynamics Enrico Balbo, lead performance engineer Ben Waterhouse and chief designer Craig Skinner.

Monuments marked for removal included, among others, an 2,000 Roman column erected to commemorate fascist Italian aviator Italo Balbo’s 1933 transatlantic flight to Chicago, a statue of Union Gen. Philip Sheridan over his actions in the Indian Wars, and reliefs on the DuSable bridge that “place the history of Chicago and the Battle of Fort Dearborn within an allegorical narrative of the triumph of Western civilization.”

The proposal also seeks to revive debate over a monument to Italo Balbo, which the commission decries as “a gift of the fascist government of Italy.”
